HUSHABYE MOUNTAIN - new version

[Stratpicker]

"Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" may not be anyone's favourite film music-wise but I have had 'earworm' with this particular tune from it for years. It's a beautiful waltz-time lullaby "Hushabye Mountain", written by the Sherman brothers for this 1968 film. Sung by Dick Van Dyke but never mind!
My version however, is based on the lovely rendition by Richard Hawley and Lisa Hannigan on the Irish TV programme "And Other Voices “Live”". Mine is shorter as I can't emulate that delicious pedal steel solo in the middle. I have taken a few other liberties with it but I hope you enjoy it anyway.

Brason Strat, Kinman FV's, neck pickup, an ancient Behringer UT100 Trem pedal (for Intros), Q2 EFTP Patch 30 (Intros) and Patch 10 for Lead, Joyo ACTone to DAW. Simples.

As usual, I made the backing track in Band In A Box. If anyone wants it, with Intros and Outro left in-

Absolutely spot on Ian. You have captured the "spacey" sound of the intros and the mood of the melody to perfection. A very relaxing tune to listen to and a great b/t. You never dissapoint. Well done, and thanks for sharing the b/t.
Cheers

Hi Ian
A outstandingly good recording very impressive and a pleasure to listen to.
It's a understatement to just say 'well done' for such a achievement as this.

Pete
